The indicators show that the printer is
cooling.
The print head or motor is too hot.
Print head:
If the print head becomes too hot, it may produce imaging
on the paper in areas not intended to be printed. This
condition is normal when printing a large number of
documents with a high print density. The printer will stop,
then resume printing after the print head has cooled down.
To avoid or delay the onset of this condition, print using a
lighter density setting, reduce the amount of black areas
being printed (for example, remove background shading
and colors in graphs and presentation documents). Also,
make sure that the printer has adequate ventilation and is
not located in an enclosed space.
Motor:
If the printer is used continuously, the motor will become too
hot. In this case, the printer will stop and resume printing
after the motor has cooled down.
NOTE
This condition may occur more often when the printer is
used at a high altitude (above 3,048 m (10,000 feet)) due to
the lower air density available to cool the printer.
The indicators show that a system error
has occurred.
If this condition occurs, turn off the printer, and then contact
your reseller or Brother Customer Service.
The printer does not print. Is a cable loose?
Check that the cables are connected securely.
Is the STATUS indicator blinking?
An error occurred. Check the error details in Indicators
on page 53, and then see If the STATUS indicator was
blinking in red on page 61.
